Witch Baby Soap: Holy Smokes Bath Potion

I ran through all my bath salts and found myself missing the glorious bath potions from Witch Baby. Got lucky perusing the website and there was one sitting jar of bath potion sitting pretty so into the cart it went and home it came.

Smoky incense billows out from the jar with arid sage and the specters of the trees within which the incense was born. There is a touch of vanilla powdered milk from the coconut milk powder, milk powder and tapioca that gives it the rich milk bath silkiness, but that part doesn't really affect the overall aroma once it hits the water.

Opening the metal lid to the glass jar reveals a generous stick of palo santo buried within the heart of the potion. I was not expecting that and it was a pleasant surprise. I drew myself a nice hot bath that night and the potion resulted in the most magnificent milk bath. Silken, bubbling with incense smoke and herbal sage, tender flower petals and tiny leaves curl about the surface of the water.

Holy Smokes is currently sold out, but that doesn't mean it won't come back. I have some Witch Baby bath bombs coming up in a post here soon.
